Elbtower in HafenCity: development plan approved. After three hours, the commission approved the development plan for Germany’s third tallest building. The 245-meter office and hotel tower is to be the finishing touch to HafenCity.
The Hamburg Elbtower will be a powerful culmination to HafenCity development and at the same time a curtain-raiser for the entrée to inner-city Hamburg. Following the design by David Chipperfield Architects, SIGNA Prime Selection AG will implement the project. The construction could get under way 2021, with opening in 2025 or 2026.
